THE MORNING ASTOlllAN, ASTORIA. OREGON. TUESDAY, APRIL 10, igoO. A BUDDHIST SERVICE Chicago Buddhists Celebrate the Birth of Buddha. MANY WOMEN IN ATTENDANCE While Christian Ministers Preach of Christ's Entry Into Jerusalem, Buddhist Tell of Peace and Forgiveness. NEW YORK, April 9. While Chris tian churches last night with sermon and song were celebrating Palm Sun day and the entry of the Savior into Jerusalem before his crucifixion, priests of the Buddhist faith in a house, No. 62 West Street, in strange robes and with weird chantinft ware celebrating the birth of the Saviour Gautam Buddha 450 years before the birth of Christ. In the Buddhist temple there were no hymns, no prayers, nor other of the re ligious forms of the Christian faith, but the sermons preached by the Chris tian clergymen and by the Buddhist priests differed little. It was the same message of peace, purity and forgiveness, perhaps 100, per sons were present at the Buddhist ser vice. For the most part they wen women. In one end of the large room a small altar had been arranged, where incense burned, Everywhere vrere flowers They festooned, the walls and the chan delier. The members of the congrega tion were admitted by a card. Back of the improvised altar was the name of a Buddha inscribed on fine Hk. Beneath this burned the Incense. The services began with the entrance of the high priest with two others, who. standing before the altar with clasped hands and closed eyes, intoned a chant in their own language. This being over, addresses were made by Swami Abekananda, head of the Vedanta Society in New York and by other BuddhistV priess. Right RV4 Soyen Shaku was then introduced and told briefly of his life's work and said he had just returned from Washington, where he had an interview with Presi dent Roosevelt. "According to Buddhism," he said "it is a serious error to seek God outside of the life, outside of this universe. It is light right among ourselves and di recting the course of things, according to its innate destiny. What may be called the Buddhist Metaphsieal phase is to recognize the reality of the phenom enal world, the existence of one ultimate reason and the imminence of this rea son is the universe. The Buddhist prac tical faith is, cease from wrong doing, promote goodness, enlighten the ignor ant. Buddhist ethics are the simplest things to practice in the world. Budd hism has nothing myst"rious, nothing ruperstitious, nothing idolatrous, noth ing supernatural. Stop doing what is wrong, which is against the reason of things; whatever is good, which ad vances the course of reason in this life, and," finally, help those who are still , behind and weary of life to realize en lightenment. This is Buddhism in a nutshell." FRANK T. WRIGHTMAN of Salem. Candidate for the Republican Nomina tion for Secretary of State. Grip Quickly Knocked Out. "Some weeks ago during the severe winter weather both my wiie and myself contracted severe colds which speedily developed into the worst kind of la grippe with all its miserable symptoms. lays Mr. J. S. hgleston ot Maple .Land ing, Iowa. " Knees and joints aching, muscles sore, head stopped up, eyes and nose running, with alternate Bpells of chills and fever. We began using Chamberlain's Coueh Remedy, aiding the same with a double dose of Chamber- Iain's Stomach and Liver Tablets, and by I its liberal use soon completely knocked) out the grip."

"They were the right kind of walking dele gates who saw that their companion did their proper share of work. He would have it said that the-e walking dele gates told the other Ttf.000 that if they did not join the union they could have, no hand in reaching the great temple. "T received a letter this morning from a man who wanted to know whether the Methodist Episcopal Church was a friend of labor. I want to answer that question fairly. We aV the friends of labor; every man and woman who earns his or her living by the sweat of their faces. And anyone who is not a friend of one hundred per cent of the working people is not a friend of any of them. I say this for the church, because it has said nothing for itself."

GRECIAN INDEPENDENCE. NEW YORK. April 9. What might be called "Independence day" celebration for the 10,000 Greeks in this city, took place yesterday. April 7, 1821 saw the beginning of the agitation which re sulted in the independence of Greece abou nine years later. The New York Greek wa3 too busy to celebrate, on Sat urday so Sunday was set aside as the day when he should meet his fellows and hear again the story of his coun try's struggle for freedom. Webster Hall wss packed with pa triots. There was patriotic singings, then colored pictures, dealing with great events in the history of ancient Greece were shown by a stereoptieon, while John P. Leotosakos told them. The free dom of all the Greeks under Tnrwish rule was first in his mind as he talked of the past. RANTING SOCIALISTS. SPOKANE, Wash., April 9. Two thousand Socialists and labor unionists, in mass meeting in the Spokane theatre, listened to speeches denouncing the ac tion of the authorities of Idaho and Col orado in arresting the Western Federa tion of Miners leaders. Resolutions were adopted denouncing Harry Orchard and his confession, the latter being described as "A falsehood worthy of Baron Mun chausen." SUSPECTS FOUL PLAY. SPOKANE, April 9. Investigation made today by Sheriff H. B. Doak and Thomas Cole confirms the belief that N. W. Cole, for 20 years a rancher 12 miles from Spokam-, who disappeared from his cabin, March 28, has met with foul play, the motive for which was rob bery. Cole's horses have not been seen since and tracks near a spot on the river indicate, tlie officers say, that Cole was probably thrown into the stream which at the time of his disappear ance was high, and he is dead.

IN POLICE COURT Chronicles of the Day in Mun icipal Court. DRUNKS APPEAR FOR TRIAL Mr. Anderson Finds a Sore Nose and Two Black Eyes In His Wander ings Other Items of the Day. The red cloud that hung over Four teeutU and derome streuU SulunUy night at six o'clock was not caused by the sinking sun. but by the force with which a gentleman sent his clenched list against the nasal organ of one Mr. An derson and following his advantnge' with a series of jolts to Anderson's eyes. The cries of Mr. Anderson brought Chief Gamuial and two assistants to the scene in time to see the victor vanishing in hot haste around the corner of the next block. In police court yesterday after noon Anderson admitted he was drunk, but failed to recall the circumstances which led up to his damaged counten ance. He was allowed to depart on his promise to go to work and !e good hereafter. When Adtnral Rojestvensky fired on the Japanese fleet he had been drink ing Peruna and when Nicholas lvano vitch fired up witu the Peruna sold in Astoria thirst joints, and attempted to navigate. Rind street yelling at the) top of his lungs, and lestowing choice verbiage from his native tongue upon an inoffensive Japanese who happened to be passing, he probably like his il litlrous countryman did not think of the consequences. In any case the result was the same for as Rojestvensky suffered defeat at Togo's hands, so did Nicholas meet a corresponding fate. Bing! and the Admiral Togo of Bond street had delivered a sudden torpedo attack below the Russian's armor belt, and he sank to the street. By this time the crowd had arrived, but Togo waited not to follow up his easy victory. Reinforcements were coming in the shape' of the police and while yet there was time the Jap made good his retreat. Nicholas greeted Judge Anderson with a smile and apparently had recovered from the episode of the night previous. His language was voluble and intended undoubtedly to be expressive, but it was all lost on the court, for Russian is not one of his accomplishments. . "Let him go," he gasped at the chief, "This is the limit. I have learned five languages already since I have occu pied this position but Russian! that's where I draw the line." Lim Duck keeps some kind of a meat emporium on Bond street and thereby hangs a pig tail. i Lim was peacefully smoking a pest house perfecto yesterday when Mr. Scotty came along and made heap tal keft, "Washee mallee you?" demanded Lim finally losing patience. What foh alloc time foolee! Go way Skidoo! Good by! Vamoose! But Mr. Scotty refused to vamoose. He was seeking diligently for trouble, and he didn't purpose to go home until he found it. He led with a chunk of wood and broke a window. Lim Duck reached over the .counter and yanked Mr. Scotty within, and turned the prisoneij over to Lim Chung. A brother of Scotty or one of some consequinity butted in and Lim Duck nailed him. There was a melee and Lim Duck nearly lost his pigtail. Chung was swatted in the jaw. Rumors of police floated in on the agitated air of Gond street and Scotty near relative hit the planks and van ished like a sweet sad dream, and is running yet. Scotty was made to tell the judge Anderson. "You sought trouble and you found it!" said his honor grimly. "Twenty four hours for you!" Lim Duck and Lim Chung arose and departed from the room. .Justice was all right. 'Melican Jus tice heap hot stuff! One broad grin went down 10th street from tiifl city hall. a broad composite grin that reached from curb to curb. Peter St. Mary, one of the prominent gamblers of the northwest arrived in the city tlie other day and prepared to set up in business. He pi id fines in the police court yesterday for permission to carry on his trade. Meda Winters, an Amazon of the r? strictred district drank too much and wore too little to be computable even with the dignity of Astor Mreet, and was therefore arrested. She gave Chief annual $.VK for her appearance in police court and was allowed to go. The money was declared forfeited yesterday afternoon when Meda forgot, to appear in court. BILLIARD CHAMPIONSHIP.
